Abstract:
The serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) family member corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) is the main carrier of glucocorticoids in plasma. Human CBG mediates the targeted release of cortisol at sites of inflammation through cleavage of its reactive center loop (RCL) by neutrophil elastase. The RCLs of SERPIN family members are targeted by diverse endogenous and exogenous proteases, including several bacterial proteases. We tested different bacteria for their ability to secrete proteases that disrupt CBG cortisol-binding activity, and characterized the responsible protease and site of CBG cleavage. Serum CBG integrity was assessed by Western blotting and cortisol-binding capacity assay. Effects of time, pH, temperature, and protease inhibitors were tested. Proteolytically active proteins from bacterial media were purified by fast protein liquid chromatography, and the active protease and CBG cleavage sites were identified by mass spectrometry. Among the bacteria tested, medium from Pseudomonas aeruginosa actively disrupted the cortisol-binding activity of CBG. This proteolytic activity was inhibited by zinc chelators and occurred most efficiently at pH 7 and elevated physiological temperature (ie, 41°C). Mass spectrometric analysis of a semi-purified fraction of P. aeruginosa media identified the virulence factor LasB as the responsible protease, and this was confirmed by assaying media from LasB-deficient P. aeruginosa. This metalloprotease cleaves the CBG RCL at a major site, distinct from that targeted by neutrophil elastase. Our results suggest that humoral responses to P. aeruginosa infection are influenced by this pathogen's ability to secrete a protease that promotes the release of the anti-inflammatory steroid, cortisol, from its plasma transport protein.

Abstract:
The work of art produced in its origins was only much later recognized as such. Similarly, the artistic function of current art objects in the future may become accidental again. In fact, at no time has art ever answered exclusively to aesthetic demands. From these assumptions by Walter Benjamin (1936-1939/1992), we will attempt to apply to art the concepts of “binding” (original of ethology) and of “linking networks” (used in neuroscience) to explain distinctive aspects of image metaphysics, shared by art and religion. From a historical perspective, we will attempt to show the evolution of art in three main binding logics: art as a magical activity (also in relation to index logic); art as mimesis; and art as language. The image, or rather the multiple realities we call “image”, takes each one of these links, in an exchanging or simultaneous way, since image is their heiress. Taking into account the present context of media images hypervisibility, we aim, with this study, to show the importance of art and its mythical-religious ascendance in what concerns media image redefinition.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Strategies to limit complement deposition on Streptococcus pneumoniae are established as virulence features for invasive disease, but their role in respiratory tract infection requires further analysis. We evaluated complement C3 protein deposition on discordant S. pneumoniae isolates of the same serotype (6A) and their capacity to cause nasopharyngeal (NP) colonization and experimental otitis media (EOM) in an animal model. We compared C3 binding to five 6A isolates from asymptomatic NP carriers with five 6A strains that caused invasive disease, and we observed less C3 (∼10-fold less fluorescence) binding to invasive isolates. We selected two high-level C3-binding carriage and two low-level C3-binding invasive 6A isolates for further study. In the EOM model, 11/12 (92%) ears challenged with a low-level C3-binding 6A strain became infected. Only 2/8 (25%) ears challenged with the discordant high-level C3-binding 6A isolate developed disease (P = 0.005). Results with the second discordant 6A isolate pair were comparable. Cobra venom factor (CoVF) treatment, which depletes C3 and consumes complement, restored virulence of the high-level C3-binding strain; 8/8 (100%) ears in CoVF-treated animals developed EOM compared to only 25% of ears in naïve animals (P = 0.007). These studies demonstrate the critical role for complement evasion in pneumococcal EOM. Colonization with carriage isolates that bound high levels of C3 caused EOM in fewer animals compared to low-level C3-binding invasive strains. Thus, limiting C3 deposition on the surface of S. pneumoniae correlates with increased incidence of EOM following NP colonization and barotrauma in the animal model.

Abstract:
The global prevalence of anxiety and depression rates have increased by 25% due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Depression can occur due to an increase in NO produced by the nNOS enzyme. Gallic acid and its derivatives can be obtained from nature and have various biological activities. This study aimed to determine the potential of gallic acid and its derivatives as nNOS inhibitors using the molecular docking method with parameters of binding energy values, RMSD values, and specific binding to amino acid residues. The results showed that gallic acid, 4-O-methyl gallic acid, and epigallocatechin gallate had bond energies of −1.87; −2.36; and −0.12 kcal/mol, respectively. Compared to the standard ligand, which had binding energy of −2.84 kcal/mol, gallic acid 4-O-(6-galloyl glucoside) had binding energy of −4.12 kcal/mol. Based on these results, gallic acid 4-O-(6-galloyl glucoside) can potentially inhibit nNOS.

Abstract:
This dissertation describes the application and optimisation of an analytical technique, named thermally assisted hydrolysis and methylation - gas chromatography / mass spectrometry [THM.-GCMS]. THM.-GCMS is a modification of pyrolysis - gas chromatography / mass spectrometry [Py-GCMS] which involves an on-line derivatisation process known as thermally assisted hydrolysis and methylation. The method is based on the high temperature reaction of tetramethylammonium hydroxide with macromolecular materials containing functional groups susceptible to hydrolysis and methylation. During this research THM.-GCMS was used for the chemical characterisation of the most frequently-used binding media in 20th century art: oils, acrylics, alkyds and poly(vinylacetates). The major classes of binding media used in 20th century paints have been previously studied in conservation using a range of techniques, the most important being GCMS, Py-GCMS and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy [FTIR]. However, this project was novel in that it demonstrated the possibility of chemically characterising a wide variety of both natural and synthetic binders found in modem works of art using a single technique, THM.-GCMS. Standard samples of oils, egg yolk, acrylics, poly(vinylacetates) and alkyds as well as samples containing these materials from nine painted works of art were successfully studied using THM.-GCMS. Among the art works studied, those by Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso were investigated for the first time.

This project is focused on the study of synthetic materials used by Portuguese artists in the twentieth century. The aim of the study was the molecular characterization of vinyl and acrylic polymers used since the 1960s and the study of their photodegradation and evolution over time. In modern and contemporary art, water based synthetic emulsions have been widely used as painting binding media, especially acrylic and vinyl based emulsions. In some countries like Portugal where the first aqueous emulsions used as paint binders were the poly(vinyl acetate) – PVAc – ones, both as household and artist’s paints, the study of vinyl polymers is of particular importance. In Portugal these emulsions were used by outstanding artists like Joaquim Rodrigo and Ângelo de Sousa since the 1960s. In order to guarantee the preservation of the artworks for the future generations it is essential to understand how these paints will behave upon ageing. The molecular photodegradation of PVAc was studied and the presence of degradation products on reference and model samples, as well as on dated artworks was investigated. Paintings by Joaquim Rodrigo and Ângelo de Sousa, and also a hand painted catalogue for the Sabu vinyl artists’ paints, were selected as case studies. The characterization of micro-samples from the artworks provided useful information on the real evolution of the polymer binder over time. Accelerated photodegradtion studies were performed by the exposure of PVAc films on an ageing chamber equipped with a xenon-arc lamp. The behaviour of PVAc (homopolymer) was compared with a commercial emulsion(Vulcano V7) and paint reconstructions prepared in the laboratory. The results achieved by means of infrared microspectroscopy (FTIR) point out the considerably stable nature of these binding media as no molecular evidence was obtained concerning the formation of other carbonyl functions, the disappearance of the PVAc carbonyl or the formation of hydroperoxides. The polymer photodegradation process was further studied by means of size exclusion chromatography (SEC), following the molecular weight distribution and correspondent average molecular weights. It was concluded that no side-chain reactions are taking place and that main-chain scission is the foremost degradation mechanism, although not affecting the polymer performance significantly. The influence of pigments, such as titanium dioxide and iron oxide, on the polymer’s stability was also considered and it was concluded that they do not promote degradation, which might be explained due to pigment encapsulation in inert materials inhibiting its photocatalytic behaviour. The photodegradation quantum yield was determined as 7.4 x 10-8 at 313 nm for PVAc homopolymer; therefore, degradation is quantified and comparisons may be performed for different polymers. A parallel study, according to a similar experimental approach, was undertaken on the stability of poly(methyl methacrylate) – PMMA – used as acrylic sheet by the Portuguese artist Lourdes Castro.

Abstract:
I have carried out this thesis in the Biophysical Chemistry of Macromolecules and Colloids research group of the University of Barcelona. In the recent years, the research group have made significant contributions to the study of the conformational, binding, diffusion and reactivity properties of weak polyelectrolytes and biopolymers. On the one hand, the group has contributed to the design and development of the Site Binding Rotational Isomeric State (SBRIS) model for weak polyelectrolytes. They have also successfully used the SBRIS model to reproduce the complex experimental titration curves of polyethylenimine. On the other hand, the research group has done significant contributions in the study of biopolymer diffusion and reactivity in crowded media. They tracked the diffusion of α-chymiotrypsin in solutions crowded by different- sized dextran macromolecules. They rationalized the experimental results comparing them with on-lattice Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, observing a qualitative agreement between both sets of data. The present thesis follows the efforts of the research group in the development of theoretical and computational models for weak polyelectrolytes and biopolymers. I investigate different theoretical aspects of the conformational, ionization, elastic and diffusive properties of weak polyelectrolytes and biopolymers using theoretical and computational simulation techniques. The thesis includes six original peer-reviewed publications, which are distributed in six different chapters. Moreover, a complete description of the fundamental concepts and methodologies relevant for the thesis is also given. On the one hand, I focus in the complex interplay of the ionization and conformational degrees of freedom of weak polyelectrolytes using the recently developed Site Binding Rotational Isomeric State (SBRIS) model. A new analytical technique, the Local Effective Interaction Parameters (LEIP) method, is presented to solve the SBRIS model including long range intramolecular electrostatic interactions. The model is validated against constant pH Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. The SBRIS model is used to study the elastic response of a model weak polyelectrolyte. A new force regime is found for which (i) the force-extension curves are significantly dependent on the pH and the ionic strength values (ii) the polyelectrolyte charge is modified by the stretching force. The effect of charge fluctuation in the conformational and stretching properties of weak polyelectrolytes is studied comparing the results obtained with SGCMC simulation with those obtained with MC simulation with the same charge but keeping it constant. The conformational and elastic properties of the polyelectrolyte are observed to be significantly affected by the presence of charge regulation. On the other hand, I study the diffusive and ionization properties of biopolymers in solution with a high concentration of macromolecules. These conditions, known as macromolecular crowding, are characteristic of biological media where up to the 40% of the volume is occupied by macromolecules. The diffusion of two globular proteins, α-chymiotrypsin and streptavidin, is analysed in different crowding conditions with Brownian Dynamics simulations. A new coarse grained model is proposed, named as Chain Entanglement Softened Potential (CESP), which is found to reproduce quantitatively the experimental data. I have investigated the effect of macromolecular crowding in the binding and conformational properties of two Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs), histatin-5 and β-amyloid 42, which are modelled using a bead and spring model. The crowders are modelled using the CESP model mimicking Bovin Serum Albumin (BSA). The investigation is motivated by the hypothesis that, in the same way that the conformational and ionization degrees of freedom are coupled in weak polyelectrolytes, the macromolecular crowding should also cause a charge regulation in IDPs whose flexible structure is similar to those of weak polyelectrolytes. Two possible mechanisms through by macromolecular crowding can alter the IDP ionization are proposed: (i) the increase in the effective ionic strength (same ions in a reduced volume) and (ii) the IDP compaction due to macromolecular crowding. The IDPs global charge is found to exhibit significant variations when neutral and charged crowders are added to the system, due to the increase in the effective ionic strength.
Els polímers són omnipresents a la nostra vida diària, presents en múltiples aplicacions industrials i involucrats en processos biològics essencials. Per exemple, l’ADN, les proteïnes i els sucres poden ser considerats polímers, normalment denominats biopolímers. Aquells polímers amb un gran nombre de grups carregats són coneguts com a polielectròlits i freqüentment classificats en termes de la seva ionització com a forts (completament ionizats) o febles (parcialment ionizats). En aquesta tesi, investigo diferents aspectes teòrics de les propietats conformacionals, elàstiques, difusives i d'ionització de polielectròlits febles i biopolímers. Per un costat, em centro en la complexa interació entre els graus de llibertat d'ionització i conformacionals dels polielectròlits febles utilitzant el model Site Binding Rotational Isomeric State (SBRIS), desenvolupat recentment. S’introdueix una nova tècnica analítica, el mètode Local Effective Interaction Parameters (LEIP), per resoldre el model SBRIS incloent les interaccions electroestàtiques intramoleculars de llarg abast. El model es valida comparant els resultats amb la solució obtinguda per simulacions Monte Carlo a pH constant. El model SBRIS s’utilitza per estudiar la resposta elàstica d’un polielectròlit model. Es troba un nou règim de força en el que (i) les corbes força-extensió són significativament dependents del valor del pH i la força iònica (ii) la càrrega del polielectròlit es modificada per la acció de la força d’estirament. S’observa que les propietats conformacionals i elàstiques del polielectròlit es veuen significativament i moderadament afectades per la presència de fluctuacions en la càrrega, respectivament. Per l’altre costat, avaluo les propietats difusives i d'ionització de biopolímers en solució amb una elevada concentració de macromolecules. Aquestes condicions, conegudes com crowding macromolecular, son característiques dels medis biologics on fins el 40% del volum es ocupat per macromolecules. S’analitza la difusió de dues proteïnes globulars, α-chimiotripsina i estreptavidina, en diferents condicions de crowding macromolecular amb simulacions de Dinàmica Browniana. Es proposa un nou model de gra gruixut, anomenat Chain Entanglement Softened Potential (CESP), el qual es trobat que reprodueix quantitativament les dades experimentals.

Abstract:
Confucianism is the doctrine that ruled Eastern Asian countries for thousands of years. The doctrine focused on the order of the society and the dependence among individuals in the society. One critique for Confucianism is the under-evaluation of women's role and presence in the society. In the thesis, I will detect Confucianism-related gender stereotypes appearing on feature interviews in the entertainment section of online newspapers in Vietnam, one of former Confucian countries. The thesis also makes the effort to connect the global journalism theory to the solution for removing gender stereotypes from journalism. Three methods namely critical discourse analysis (CDA), conversation analysis (CA) and interviewing are employed in the thesis to address three research questions. Four Confucianism-inspired gender stereotypes are pointed out and the connection between Confucianism-related gender stereotyping and global journalism is basically sketched out in terms of journalistic style.

Abstract:
This study aims at tackling some of the problems often encountered in photostability testing and liquid formulation development. Three anti-cancer drugs will be employed as models; Dacarbazine (DBZ) has well established photostability issues, Axitinib (AXI) and Sunitinib (SUT) are two new drugs only commercially available in solid dosage forms. In ethanol, the photokinetics of these drugs were well described by the newly proposed Φ-order kinetic mathematical model. This has confirmed the photoreversible character of AXI and SUT’s and unimolecular photoreaction of DBZ’s photodegradations. Also, the Φ-order kinetics is proven to describe them better than the usually used classic thermal reaction orders. In aqueous solution, the drugs were found to undergo thermal and photochemical complex degradations, involving at least 3 photoproducts. A new photokinetic approach has been proposed in this work to solving and unravelling the attributes of such complex mechanisms. For the first time, the quantum yields (QY) of the three drugs were determined and found to increase with irradiation wavelength. SUT’s QY were comparable in ethanol and water (QY460 = 0.02), DBZ was found to be more photoefficient in water (QY330 = 0.04 and 0.1, respectively) and AXI in water (QY330 = 0.06 and 0.03). Φ-order kinetics’ potential for the development of reliable actinometers of the three drugs, without prior knowledge of unknown reaction parameters, has also been established. A general equation to describe the isotherm of a (Gn:Hm) guest-host multicomponent complex was proposed in this work to palliate the lack of a strategy for characterising nanosponge-drug complexes. It provides information on both stiochiometry and association constant of the complex. The results indicate that hydrophobic AXI forms a 1:0.8 complex, indicating the possibility of multiple association sites and/or different types of binding. The newly developed AXI/nanosponge liquid formulation has significantly increased solubility (5000-fold) and thermal stability. Furthermore, the photostability of DBZ and SUT were considerably improved by using a strategy based on light-absorption competitors. Their initial velocities reduced from 10 and 3 s-1 (respectively) to 1 and 0.13 s-1. The successful application of these methods to the model anti-cancer drugs has set out new approaches that might be found useful for future treatments of photodegradation data, development of drug-actinometers and liquid formulations of drugs.

Abstract:
Criticism of media speech is one of the directions in media linguistics based on the assessment of the quality of speech activity in the mass media. Within the framework of this direction, several subdisciplines have already been formed, each of which has its own approaches to the development of problems of the norm and the assessment of compliance with it. The manual contains two sections. The first one is devoted to the praxiolinguistic criticism of media speech. It shows how the use of the axiological scale of speech behavior in the media "effectively — permissible (unsuccessful — unacceptable — prohibited)" can assess the quality of business, art and sports journalistic discourse. The second section explains how to assess conflict media and diagnose speech crimes in the media. In the course of working with the book, students are taught to separate professional and non—professional speech in the media, to assess the quality of language and speech in media texts, or rather, the quality of the selection of language tools and speech resources, correlating the result of journalistic activity with social, general cultural language and speech norms — appropriate, permissive, binding, prohibiting. The work with the manual is designed to form eco-speech competence in the media and contributes to the formation of speech media literacy. Meets the requirements of the federal state educational standards of higher education of the latest generation. For students of educational departments studying in the areas of "Journalism", "Advertising" and "Public Relations".

Abstract:
The analysis of binding media in paint is contextualised, and key approaches for the study of media including proteinaceous, lipidic and synthetic polymers used in painting are given. The structure and chemistry of commonly found binding media are reviewed. Examples of analytical strategies for the identification of media based on highly effective Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) vibrational spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry are illustrated for protein and oil-based media. Case studies highlight applications of proteomic analysis to the identification of egg from archaeological wall paintings, the stratigraphic analysis of binding media using synchrotron-based micro-FTIR and FTIR mapping of paint cross-sections, and the analysis of complex oils and modern materials in 20th C. paintings. Advantages, limitations and future trends are described for the analysis of paint, with reference to the degradation of organic media and sample limitations with key texts for further reading provided.

Abstract:
The “medium is the message”: nowadays the medium as such is non-distinguishable from its presentation environment. However, what is the medium in an ambient environment, when the environment is smart, recognizes emotions, and at the same time responsive? Emotions have had an inferior role in philosophy, psychology, art, and nowadays in media technology. In philosophy and psychology many researchers devoted their work to the question what emotions are, and how they can be modelled, ranging from common-sense theories, theories that emotions are simply physiological disturbances, and the many behaviour theories describing emotions providing a much more comprehensive view on emotions (Solomon, 1977). In the age of ambient media, where media technology is embedded seamlessly and hidden into the natural environment of the consumer, the view towards media is changing. The modality how emotions are experienced and the technology to recognize and simulate emotions are changing. To support the theories within the scope of this chapter, a case study – the emotional ambient responsive character – has been performed. The concept was realised as a simple interactive game responding to human emotions. Within this book section, we present a technical oriented view towards recognizing, simulating, and binding emotions in ambient media systems. A case-study for an emotion recognition and response system is presented. The system integrates the content and emotion recognition elements.

Abstract:
Abstract Biological tissues exhibit swelling or shrinking behaviour. This behaviour is caused by water binding. Biological tissues are able to bind water because of the fixed charges of the solid skeleton. These electrical charges are responsible for a variety of physical phenomena such as streaming potentials, diffusion potentials, electro-osmosis, electrophoresis and swelling.

Abstract:
Platelet membrane glycoproteins lib and Ilia form Ca++-dependent heterodimer complexes that contain binding sites for fibrinogen and therefore are relevant to the ability of platelets to aggregate together. In this study we investigated the effects of extracellular Ca++ on the stability and expression of IIb-IIIa complexes using a IIb-IIIa complex-specific monoclonal antibody M148. Its specificity was examined using crossed immunoelectrophoresis: the antibody reacted only with intact IIb-IIIa complexes and not with either glycoprotein alone.SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of immunoprecipitates of soluble glycoproteins that interacted with Ml48 showed that lib and Ilia were present as complexes in Ca++-depleted media at 25°C, pH7.4. However, Ca++-depletion at 37°C, pH7.4 or 37°C, pH8.7 or 25°C, pH8.7 caused dissociation of the complexThe effect of extracellular Ca++ on the expression of IIb-Illa complexes on the surface of intact platelets was studied by a technique which is based upon indirect binding of M148 using a fluorescent- labelled second antibody (FITC-RAM) and measuring the fluorescence per platelet using the FACS IV cytofluorometer. Intact platelets were incubated in Ca++-depleted media at 25°C, pH7.4 or 37°C, pH7.4 either (i) prior to or (ii) after adding M148. At 25°C increased M148-binding was observed, compared to the value prior to Ca++-depletion. This increased binding could be reversed by adding Ca++ back to the preparation. Under condition (i) at 37°C a marked decrease in M148 binding was observed, which could not be reversed by restoring Ca++, while under condition (ii) at 37°C the results were the same as at 25°C.Our studies demonstrate that (a) Ca++-depletion at 37°C and/or alkaline pH causes dissociation of the Ilb-IIIa complex (b) Ca++ depletion at 25°C possibly alters distribution of the complexes thereby increasing their availability to the antibody and (c) M148 prevents the dissociation of complexes in Ca++-depleted media at 37°C, possibly by holding lib and Ilia together

Abstract:
Former studies assumed that, after fission process occurs, the highly ionized new born atoms (20–22 positive charge), ionize the media in which they pass through before becoming stable atoms in a manner similar to 4-MeV-particles. Via ordinary chemical reactions with the surroundings, each stable atom has a probability to form chemical compound. Since there are about 35 different elemental atoms created through fission processes, a large number of chemical species were suggested to be formed. But, these suggested chemical species were not found in the environment after actual releases of FP during accidents like TMI (USA, 1979), and Chernobyl (former USSR, 1986), also the models based on these suggested reactions and species could not interpret the behavior of these actual species. It is assumed here that the ionization states of the new born atoms and the long term high temperature were not dealt with in an appropriate way and they were the reasons of former models failure. Our new approach of DEEP ATOMIC BINDING (DAB) based on the following: 1. The new born atoms which are highly ionized, 10–12 electrons associated with each nucleus, having a large probability to create bonds between them to form molecules. These bonds are at the L, or M shells, and we call it DAB. 2. The molecules stay in the reactor at high temperatures for long periods, so they undergo many stages of composition and decomposition to form giant molecules. By applying DAB approach, field data from Chernobyl, TMI and nuclear detonations could be interpreted with a wide coincidence resulted.

Abstract:
This study was carried out during the ICR conservation project involving two of the mural paintings of the Saint Peter and Paul’s hypogeum in Matera. Retouching mural paintings preserved in such a peculiar environment as hypogea is not an ordinary operation. In these contexts, relative humidity approximating to 100% makes hygroscopic materials less durable, favouring biological growth on them. In addition, severe climatic conditions can lead to a fast degradation of retouching materials. Watercolours, extensively employed for retouching mural paintings, are not completely recommendable in such humid environments, so a research was planned to find a compatible and alternative binding media. A study was carried out on laboratory samples to select the most suitable binding media among the following: two synthetic resins, Laropal A81 and Regalrez 1094, and two natural products, Funori and arabic gum. Each binder was blended with two different pigments. For each binder four different dilutions were tested, in order to find out how these factors could have affected the analysed properties. These products have been investigated in relation to their optical properties, wettability, vapour and water permeability, resistance to salt crystallisation and bioreceptivity. Some tests were repeated after an artificial ageing process, based on cyclical alternation of humid-cold and dry-hot exposure conditions. In addition to the laboratory tests, some in situ applications were performed. Amongst four binders, Regalrez 1094 showed the best results. Nevertheless, its bioreceptivity and applicability issues make necessary to continue and develop further research.

Abstract:
Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) activates the proenzyme plasminogen to the active protease plasmin which degrades fibrin. The unique properties of t-PA, fibrin binding and stimulation of activity by fibrin make it an interesting molecule for specific thrombolysis. t-PA is thought to consist of five structural regions designated finger (F), growth factor (G), kringle 1 (Kl), kringle 2 (K2) and protease (P). Previous studies have shown that the interaction of t-PA with fibrin is mediated by the F and K2 regions.Mutated t-PA cDNA molecules were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells and t-PA analog proteins were purified from serum free culture media using affinity chromatography with immobilized monoclonal antibodies. Besides FGK1K2P (native t-PA) the following analogs were used GK1K2P, klK2P, K2P, P, FP and FGKlk2P (kl and k2 have partial deletions of the kringle). All the molecules comprising K2P could be stimulated in plasminogen activation activity by fibrinogen fragments comparable to normal t-PA. The activities of FP and FGKlk2P were only slightly influenced by these fragments. It was shown that the fibrin binding site in K2 was plasminogen dependent whereas that in F was not. K2 was found to contain a binding site for lysine, 6-amino-hexanoic acid but also 6-amino-hexane and thus to differ from the high affinity lysine binding sites in plasminogen.Chemical modification of lysine and arginine residues in t-PA with citraconic anhydride and cyclohexanedione respectively, revealed no involvement of these residues in interaction with lysine or analogs nor in stimulation of activity by fibrinogen fragments. Arginine modification led to inhibition of plasminogen activation activity, both in the presence and absence of fibrinogen fragments, but the amidolytic activity as measured with a tripeptide paranitroanilide was not changed. The involvement of one or more arginine residues in interaction of t-PA with plasminogen seems likely.

Abstract:
While cancers have no known cure, some of them can be successfully treated with the combination of surgery and systematic therapy. In general, systemic/widespread chemotherapy is usually injected into the bloodstream to attempt to target cancer cells. Such procedure often imparts devastating side effects because cancer drugs are nonspecific in activity, and transporting them throughout the bloodstream further reduces their ability to target the right region. This means that they kill both healthy and unhealthy cells. It has been observed that the physiological conditions of the fluids around living cells can be characterized by pH, and the magnitude of pH around a living cell is different from cancerous cells. Moreover, a multiscale anatomy of carcinoma will reveal that the microstructure of cancer cells contains some characteristic elements such as specific biomarker receptors and DNA molecules that exclusively differentiate them from healthy cells. If these cancer specific ligands can be intercalated by some functional molecules supplied from an implantable patch, then the patch can be envisioned to serve as a complementary technology with current systemic therapy to enhance localized treatment efficiency, minimize excess injections/surgeries, and prevent tumor recurrence. The broader objective of our current research is to capture some fundamental insights of such drug delivery patch system. It is envisioned that the essential components of the device is nanodiamonds (ND), parylene buffer layer and doxorubicin (DOX) drugs. In its simplest form, self-assembled nanodiamonds - functionalized or pristine, and DOX molecules are contained inside parylene capsule. The efficient functioning of the device is characterized by its ability to precisely detect targets (cancer cells) and then to release drugs at a controlled manner. The fundamental science issues concerning the development of the ND-based device include: 1. A precise identification of the equilibrium structure and self assembled morphology of nanodiamonds, 2. Fundamental understanding of the drug adsorption and desorption process to and from NDs, and 3. The rate of drug release through the parylene buffers. The structure of the nanodiamond (ND) is crucial to the adsorption and desorption of drug molecules because it not only changes the self-assembly configuration but also alters the surface electrostatics. To date, the structure and electrostatics of NDs are not yet well understood. A density functional tight binding theory (DFTB) study on smaller [2] NDs suggests a facet dependent charge distributions on ND surfaces. These charges are estimated by Mulliken Analysis [1]. Using the charges for smaller NDs (∼valid for 1–3.3 nm dia ND) we first projected surface charges for larger (4–10 nm) truncated octahedral nanodiamonds (TOND), and it has been found that the [100] face and the [111] face contain positively and negatively charged atoms, respectively. These projected charges are then utilized to obtain the self assembled structure of pristine TONDs from Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations [4] as shown in Fig. 1. The opposite charges on the [100] and [111] face invoked electrostatic attractions among the initially isolated NDs and a network of nanodiamond agglutinates are formed as evidenced in Fig. 1(b). This study confirms why as manufactured NDs are found in agglomerated form. The study also suggests that a large fraction of ND surfaces become unavailable for drug absorption as many of the [100] faces are coherently connected to [111] faces. As a result, it can be perceived that effective area for drug adsorption on ND surfaces will be less compared to theoretical prediction which suggests that a 4nm TOND may contain as high 360 drug molecules on its surface [5]. It has been observed that as manufactured NDs may contain a variety of functional groups, and currently, we are studying the mechanism of self-assembly for functionalized nanodiamonds so that we understand the role of functional groups. The next phase of calculation involves binding of the DOX to the NDs. Essentially, the understanding of drug absorption and desorption profile at a controlled rate to and from NDs is the most critical part of the device design. Some recent quantum calculation suggests that part of NDs and drug molecules contain opposite charges at their surfaces; it has been a natural interpretation that interactions between ND and drug molecules should be straight-forward — NDs should attract to drugs as soon as they come closure. Recent experiments [6], however, suggest that NDs usually do not interact with drug molecules in the presence of neutral solutions. Addition of NaCl in the solution improves the interaction dramatically. In the first part of the study, we [3–5] have studied the interaction of single DOX molecules with TOND surfaces via MD simulation. As shown in Fig. 2, this study suggests that DOX molecules first arrange them around the preferential sites on nanodiamonds (e.g. around the [111] face) and then spontaneously attach on the surface. It is also observed that only DOX molecule is attached per facets of TONDs. It can be noted that each TOND has 6 [100] face and 8 [111] faces. Figure 3 shows the energy minimization process during the DOX-ND interaction. It can be noted that these simulations have been performed in vacuum environment. In order to see how DOX interacts in solution media, another set of simulations have been conducted where “vacuum” environment have been replaced with solution media of different pH. Moreover, functionalization on the ND surfaces will create a different environment for the DOX molecules. Research is underway to capture the fundamental physics on the DOX loading and release to and from functionalized nanodiamonds. Once we understand the essential physics of drug loading and unloading, in the future we plan to model diffusion controlled drug release through ND coated film device by incorporating the multiscale science learned from the current study. Results from this study will provide fundamental insight on the definitive targeting of infected cells and high resolution controlling of drug molecules.

Abstract:
Many pharmaceutical compounds are active at very low doses, and a portion of them regularly enters municipal sewage systems and wastewater-treatment plants following use, where they often do not fully degrade. Two such compounds, CBZ and LTG, have been detected in wastewater effluents, surface waters, drinking water, and irrigation water, where they pose a risk to the environment and the food supply. These compounds are expected to interact with organic matter in the environment, but little is known about the effect of such interactions on their environmental fate and transport. The original objectives of our research, as defined in the approved proposal, were to: Determine the rates, mechanisms and products of photodegradation of LTG, CBZ and selected metabolites in waters exposed to near UV light, and the influence of DOM type and binding processes on photodegradation. Determine the potential and pathways for biodegradation of LTG, CBZ and selected metabolites using a white rot fungus (Pleurotusostreatus) and ADP, and reveal the effect of DOM complexation on these processes. Reveal the major mechanisms of binding of LTG, CBZ and selected metabolites to DOM and soil in the presence of DOM, and evaluate the effect of this binding on their photodegradation and/or biodegradation. We determined that LTG undergoes relatively slow photodegradation when exposed to UV light, and that pH affects each of LTG’s ability to absorb UV light, the efficiency of the resulting reaction, and the identities of LTG’sphotoproducts (t½ = 230 to 500 h during summer at latitude 40 °N). We observed that LTG’sphotodegradation is enhanced in the presence of DOM, and hypothesized that LTG undergoes direct reactions with DOM components through nucleophilic substitution reactions. In combination, these data suggest that LTG’s fate and transport in surface waters are controlled by environmental conditions that vary with time and location, potentially affecting the environment and irrigation waters. We determined that P. ostreatusgrows faster in a rich liquid medium (glucose peptone) than on a natural lignocellulosic substrate (cotton stalks) under SSF conditions, but that the overall CBZ removal rate was similar in both media. Different and more varied transformation products formed in the solid state culture, and we hypothesized that CBZ degradation would proceed further when P. ostreatusand the ᵉⁿᶻʸᵐᵃᵗⁱᶜ ᵖʳᵒᶠⁱˡᵉ ʷᵉʳᵉ ᵗᵘⁿᵉᵈ ᵗᵒ ˡⁱᵍⁿⁱⁿ ᵈᵉᵍʳᵃᵈᵃᵗⁱᵒⁿ. ᵂᵉ ᵒᵇˢᵉʳᵛᵉᵈ ¹⁴C⁻Cᴼ2 ʳᵉˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ʷʰᵉⁿ ¹⁴C⁻ᶜᵃʳᵇᵒⁿʸˡ⁻ labeled CBZ was used as the substrate in the solid state culture (17.4% of the initial radioactivity after 63 days of incubation), but could not conclude that mineralization had occurred. In comparison, we determined that LTG does not degrade in agricultural soils irrigated with treated wastewater, but that P. ostreatusremoves up to 70% of LTG in a glucose peptone medium. We detected various metabolites, including N-oxides and glycosides, but are still working to determine the degradation pathway. In combination, these data suggest that P. ostreatuscould be an innovative and effective tool for CBZ and LTG remediation in the environment and in wastewater used for irrigation. In batch experiments, we determined that the sorption of LTG, CBZ and selected metabolites to agricultural soils was governed mainly by SOM levels. In lysimeter experiments, we also observed LTG and CBZ accumulation in top soil layers enriched with organic matter. However, we detected CBZ and one of its metabolites in rain-fed wheat previously irrigated with treated wastewater, suggesting that their sorption was reversible, and indicating the potential for plant uptake and leaching. Finally, we used macroscale analyses (including adsorption/desorption trials and resin-based separations) with molecular- level characterization by FT-ICR MS to demonstrate the adsorptive fractionation of DOM from composted biosolids by mineral soil. This suggests that changes in soil and organic matter types will influence the extent of LTG and CBZ sorption to agricultural soils, as well as the potential for plant uptake and leaching.
